Description

Helichrysum Oil Offers Heaps of Health Benefits

Helichrysum is a natural medicinal plant that is used to make a beneficial essential oil that boasts many different benefits due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Helichrysum essential oil has been established in various experimental studies to have strong abilities to lower inflammation due to several mechanisms: inflammatory enzyme inhibition, free radical scavenging activity and corticoid-like effects.

In order to validate some of the traditional uses of Helichrysum and to highlight its other potential applications, numerous scientific studies have been conducted in the last several decades. The focus of many studies has been to identify just how helichrysum acts as a natural antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory agent.
